This hotel in Denali has the very location of all hotels, on a mountain overlooking the park. Great old charm, lots of wood and timber inside, excellent restaurant, and a great, young, energetic and pleasant staff. The shuttle bus gives great transportation to all relevant points. Cannot thank them enough for a wonderful vacation there.

We were very happy with our choice of booking this lodge. We loved the stunning view, the proximity to Denali visitors center, and the responsiveness and kindness of the service staff. It was nice to be picked up for our Tandra wilderness bus tour from the hotel. The hotel provides shuttle service, but we didn’t need it as we had a rental car.

It was lovely with lovely views.But it was not meant for 80 & 90 yo's, which we were. The loose gravel pathways were dangerous for my 90 yo husband and even for my 80 yo self. Dinner wzn't impressive but that might have bn due to oiu concerns, plan to shorten our stay & need to make chgs to oure reserv'ns.

You can’t beat this location! Views views views! It’s also 8 minutes from the Denali National Park entrance, as well as a couple minutes to downtown for shopping and dining. We also appreciated being able to dine on-site at their restaurant (more great views). Rooms themselves were modern and clean. Good water pressure. Watch for the funny road signs on the drive up to the hotel!

We had a beautiful view of Denali National Park from our room. The room was exceptional, lots of space, and very up to date! The parking was not that good with minimal parking spaces on the main level of the lodge (it was mainly a drop off area for a bus or shuttle). There was overflow parking lots down the hill so people had to hike up the dirt road to get to the lodge.

Be aware you can’t check in until 4 pm and checkout is at 10 AM. Which means housekeeping will come pounding on your door at 9 AM until you answer. We had to check out 20 minutes late due to waiting for a toilet plunger. We arrived early at 1 PM and completely understood our room wouldn’t be ready. Staff however told us they would have it ready by 2 PM. We left at 2:55 Pm with no room. Again we understood the check in time but also , don’t tell us you’ll have it available when you aren’t certain. For almost $500 a night for a place with no pool or hot tub and being there was than 12 hours, we wouldn’t stay there again

This place was a waste of money. The restaurant front counter staff was terrible. Denied us a chance to seat at the window. I had to go to the managers before finally getting to sit down at a window table. We were told that we couldn’t sit at the windows due to the staff wanting to be done early for the night. The manager took care of it and then our server helped make our night better. He was awesome. Can’t remember his name though. Our room felt a little outdated. The mattresses were old and sunken. The shower head was broken and we had to tie it with a towel so it could stay. Overall I don’t think it’s work it. Great view but I could have gotten the same without booking this hotel room.
